Patty will be missed dearly by her family and she was more of a mother to me than an aunt. Patty I will always love you and cherish the memories of us together in my heart forever. Now go fly high and give Michael a kiss for me. Until we meet again-Melissa Early (niece)

I am so very sorry for your loss. I worked with Patty at Medical Associates of SWVA and we became friends. Patty was always so fun-loving and such a very sweet person. I will be keeping Jim and all the family in my prayers. Much Love and God Bless!
